Reggie Hoover: A Kenpo Soke?

Anyone ever hear of 'soke' Reggie Hoover? He popped up today on my history group. With all the accomplishments this guy lists, when does he have time to eat, breathe, sleep, take a dump, or anything else? I've posted a message asking him what, exactly, makes him a soke.

Grandmaster Hoover continues to research and train in the martial styles of zen kempo-jitsu , shorin-ryu karate, cheng hsin tui shou, baguazhang, the sabaki method, kokushi ryu jujutsu, daito ryu aiki-jujutsu, yoshin ryu jujitsu and white crane qi gong. Soke Hoover is currently Founder Of The Dragon Kenpo Karate Consortium and Co-Founder Of The International Dragon Kenpo Association. He is presently a member of the following organizations;
